Texada Boat Club, Sturt Bay

This little marina remains a favorite of ours. When going north we often do not want to stop at the overally popular Pender Habour. The Texada Boat Club transiant docks are first come first serve, but we have always found a spot. It’s one dollar [CAD] per foot. The manager comes by in the afternoon to collet the moorage fee in cash only.

If the docks are full, the anchorage in the bay is fine but subject to swells in SE winds.

Great views out of the bay to the East, But also the source of fetch

From previous visits we can recommend a walk to the little town of Van Anda. You’ll find a very nice grocery, an interesting historial museum, the Texada Museum and Archive featuring the history of Quadra Island and a delightful lunch spot called Mary Mary Café .
